Customer Reviews VIONIC Tide II

I’ve been ordering Orthoheel now Vionic Sandals for over 20 years. Of late, the quality has really declined. This last pair had different color straps on the other shoe halfway to the anchored side. I put them on and almost fell flat on my back. There is absolutely no grip and it slides on the floor like I’ve never had happen before. Terrible sandals and I’m so sad I have to return it.

This is my 5th pair of Tide sandals. Luckily they haven't changed. I tried the cork this time and I have to say I don't love the style, but I don't really love any of the Tide offerings. The support, however, can't be beat, so I keep buying them. I wish Vionic would come up with some more attractive styles/colors/patterns with the Tide footbed. I'll keep them. My kids tell me they're ugly, though.

HOLY ARCH SUPPORT! Haha. If you’l want a flip flop with high, strong arch support, I don’t think there’s one better out there. I wish the sole was a little softer cushion but it is great support.

This is the first time I've ever ordered Vionic flip-flops and they simply feel way too big in comparison to other brands for a size 8. The upper isn't tight against the top of my foot, they are wider in the heel than other shoes, and there is about a 1/2 inch extra space behind my heel. Because of this, the entire shoe feels too big for the size ordered. I'm tempted to order a smaller size, but then wonder if my heel will be hanging off the edge. I will say though that the arch support is the best of the 3 brands I ordered, which probably reflects the difference in price, as these are almost twice as expensive. I'll be returning these though.

This brand was recommended for arch support. It had the support however, in the course of wearing them inside for a day I had an upper back ache. I walked and stood in them doing household chores. Not comfortable. They seemed too wide (m). So, I'm sending them back and going to try Reef as my granddaughter has a pair which has arch support

The ribbon between my big toe and the next toe is uncomfortable. I think leather would be more comfortable.

I recently ordered this sandal (pewter metallic, size 12M) to replace a favorite pair (same color and size) that was purchased back in May 2018. Unfortunately, this new sandal does not feel as good as my old pair. The design seems to have changed over the last 3 years. The new pair is shorter and narrower than my old sandal (per fit and actual measurement). Also, the arch support does not feel as pronounced in comparison to my old pair. I really love this sandal so I hope it was a one-time manufacturing issue and not the new design.

I don't think vionics are for me. The arch support is very high and within 10 minutes of wearing these my arches were killing me. Maybe it will benefit those that need that kind of support but I felt pain wearing these around the house when I first got them. I am usually an eight and a half, the size 8 fit perfect. The style is pretty cute though. But not comfortable.

So disappointed! Last year I bought Vionix Sandal and loved it. Size 7 Fit perfect! This year I bought Vionic Tide and they are tooo large in size 7! Why? Same type of sandal but sized wrong! How can we shop online with such inconsistencies??

I so despertaly needed these sandles to help with my planter fasciitis. The Vionic Tide is very supportive and also clean, no fuss style. I have a pair I wear just in the house and another for wearing during the summer outdoors. Highly recommend!

Very good arch support but I wish Vionics make this as a plain, undecorated, all black flip flop! The size and fit is perfect so don't want a unisex version which doesn't fit the same way!!!

Great flip flop! Gives great arch support. I usually wear a 9, but wear and 8 in these, as they run big.

YOu can always count on vionics although these felt a little stiff for 5 min and they they seemed to mold to my feet. Very supportive. Consistently good sandals!

Be specific about your likes and dislikes. How was the fit and size? What does the material feel like? How awesome (or not) do you feel wearing them?

The arch support on these flip flops are life changing. Reduced my foot pain within a couple of days of wearing them. I wasn’t expecting them to be so rigid, but I guess you can’t have this kind of amazing arch support in a sloppy shoe.

I have worn these sandals for years I have a high arc & these are perfect. I normally wear an 8.5 shoe size. The 9 is to big, so I always get the 8.

Beware a size change. I’ve been wearing this shoe for years and have gone through several colors. I love it. This shoe was too small. I have always gotten the same size, but the footbed seems to have been changed. I compared it to previous ones I have, and it is noticeably shorter.

I bought size 8. I have wore size 8 for several years in Vionic. However, it was very large. Reordered a size 7 & it was perfect. GREAT arch support.

I love these sandals. I have plantar fasciitis and arch pain which makes it nearly impossible to wear cute flip flops in the summertime. After searching around, I decided to try these babies, and they are a-mazing. The first few times you wear them, the arch support may feel like too much. It will be uncomfortable, but stick with it. Trust me. Wear them for a bit and then take a break; soon they will feel like butter when you wear them. Slipping into them, you will breathe a sigh of relief and you may even hear your arches thank you. On a side note, I have also noticed reduced back and hip pain with regular wear. It's amazing what the right shoe will do for a person. This is my second summer with these little gems. They look as good as the day I took them out of the box.

I have many pairs of these shoes and try to get a new pair every year cause I hardly wear anything else. They never disappoint and don't seem to wear out.

This shoe is excellent. This is my second pair because unfortunately after about a year the first pair broke. However, I highly recommend these for anyone with lower back pain. Wearing them around the house has been very helpful for my sciatica

This was my first pair of Vionics and the first pair of shoes that supports my high arches! They're so comfortable. I basically wear them all the time, including around the house. I have a very large bunion, and they are definitely wide enough to accommodate that. The heel area is nice and rounded, and it's actually changed the appearance of my heel, making it look more rounded like the shoe. Nice.
